CRIK:Johnson's 2-6 leads Australia to T20 rout of Bangladesh

Speedster Spencer Johnson has produced the most economical four-over spell by an Australian in T20Is to guide his country to a ruthless seven-wicket win over Bangladesh, sealing a 3-0 series sweep.

Johnson finished with the stunning figures of 2-6 from four overs as Australia restricted the Tigers to a paltry 8-109 from their 20 overs in the third and final match at Chattogram on Sunday.

The tourists cruised to victory with 54 deliveries to spare, finishing on 3-112.

Captain Mitch Marsh made light work of the modest target, bludgeoning 60 off 28 balls - including seven fours and four sixes - to be named player of the match.

"I'm not sure how I got man of the match - I think Spencer Johnson took 2-6 off four overs, so maybe he should be up here," Marsh said sheepishly at the post-match presentation.
